    I just updated my Premium Nav unit with a micro-SD card from Toyota-EU, part number PZ445-US335-0P I paid approx 3x the price in your link but felt more comfortable to have the card from Toyota, less chance of corrupted data, or possible missing/incomplete data. I simply removed the original card and replaced with the update. When powered up it automatically updated the maps and then updated the software. My dealer wanted £640 for the card and £30 labour to perform the update ....

    https://batteryuniversity.com/index.php/learn/article/absorbent_glass_mat_agm If the battery was leaking it would be pretty obvious with liquid or, now, caking on or around the battery? Has the interior been cleaned recently? it's a puzzle, please keep us updated?

    Any car can be a target for theft on demand. The C63 is particularly popular and relatively easily ringed as there are so many on the road. Get yourself a scrapyard dog .... a hungry one at that..

    How on earth did the battery acid get up there? Surely even AGM (gel) batteries are acidic?

    What about the extremely simple (mechanically) e-CVT transmission? All the benefits of an automatic with the robustness of the manual but in a smaller and lighter package. e-CVT (or versions thereof) will be the transmissions of the future.

    Also worth noting the Dynamic Cruise control will automatically cancel should the windshield wipers operate at high speed (when the wipers are in AUTO mode or the high speed wiper operation).

    This ^^^^^^^

    I preferred the baguette version 😁 A drive with more bite 😏

    Is it that the functionality changes when DRLs are also the positional/side lights?
  10. NemesisUK
    I'm not after anything 🙂 Just interested in other people's opinions on what defines premium. Been an interesting debate 👍

    DRLs should be on even in park, thought they were on as soon as the car is Ready/IGN on. Pretty sure mine are. In the second video, the front indicators are less visible than those in the first video. I was under the impression that the DRLs should go off when indicators were on? EU regulations?

    I think one can forget the electronic gizmos. Two a penny these days. Comfort, quiet and luxuriously appointed cabin is a must. As is effortless progress.
  13. NemesisUK
    Yes they are much better than the Audi version. The rears do end in a traditional type indicator. I'm not seeing how the DRLs are remaining on though?

    Is this with a hybrid? I'd say that's exactly what hybrids are good for, short journeys. But not a normal ICE model, short trips never give the alternator chance to recharge the battery.

    Who's going to pay you, your insurance or the third party's insurers?

    I'm being torn between a premium car being one with heritage and one that offers something over and above the norm. Premium these days must be something over and above the norm?
  17. NemesisUK
    The OP's car is the 200T, not the hybrid?

    I doubt warranty would cover it unless proven to be due to a battery drain fault. Would need to go on diagnostic to check. 6 miles a day just isn't enough miles to recharge the battery. Try putting it on a maintenance charger overnight, CTEK come highly recommended. Either that or go to a good long drive at the weekends.

    Lexus got it right from the factory with the LC exhaust 👍

    You'll find the ID number from one of the setup screens on the actual bag system itself. Does it not detail how to find this in your handbook?

    Followed an Audi home this pm, the indicators all but disappeared when the brake lights illuminated. Far too thin and were swamped by the twin brake light led strings... Sweeping didn't improve the visibility. I hope the ones on the RX are more obvious in all conditions.
  22. NemesisUK
    Only if they loose ... I'm guessing the claims company get paid irrespective of the outcome?
  23. NemesisUK
    Would have been my first thought..
  24. NemesisUK
    Does the new RX model have sequential/sweeping indicator LEDs? Just seen the latest RX advert and thought I saw the front indicators 'sweep' on unlocking?
  25. NemesisUK
    When parked up listening to the radio etc. leave the car in Ready mode, if you force EV mode by pressing the EV button you are telling the car not to start the ICE. It will, as you found out, automatically cancel EV mode on traction battery voltage.
